[Magdalen] A question for you... I am curious...

Yes, the terms "chaste" and "celibate" are often used interchangeably, but they aren't the same, as Jim has indicated.

Now correct me if I am wrong but somewhere in the New Testament (is it the book of Acts?)it tells us that Jesus was somewhere and His brothers and sisters were also there... Is the theory that Joseph was mucholder than Mary and that he had children from a previous marriage? and that they remained chaste within the marriage?The theory of the Perpetual Virgin Mary... ?? How do they come up with that?? The thing I also don't get is how they figure that Mary just went up into heaven??
